Amazon Tablet Could Be Cheap
Amazon has taken their Kindle eReader down to some ridiculously price points, but in the end it is really an ereader, and nobody would think of it as a tablet. As tablets continue in popularity, Amazon would like to enter this space, and undercutting the Apple leader would be a perfect strategy. Analysts are thinking they [...]

HP is looking to move their TouchPad up to the 4G speed on the At&T network. This TouchPad features a 9.7″, 1024 x 768 display and runs the WebOS 3.0 operating system (the one that the Palm folks made for smartphones). The WiFi only version of the tablet uses a 1.2 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon chip, but [...]

Whenever folks talk about a tablet being a “laptop replacement,” this seems quite ridiculous. Most folks have tons of data on a flash drive, and yet their tablet has no port to accept it. No, those skinny tablets are all about good looks, and fall flat on their face when it is time to get [...]

Coming from the ‘Down under” of Australia, Acer is coming out with their Aspire One Happy 2 netbook. Yet another example of a netbook name that hardly rolls off the tongue. It is the revamped version of Acer’s bestselling netbook. The Happy 2 is a 10.1″ display netbook, in a 1.3 kg package. There is a [...]

10. July 2011 | by Jonas
Samsungs’s NC215S offers some serious solar technology, with photovoltaic cells across the lid. It promises to bump the runtime up an hour for every two hours of suntime. For unplugged computing in the desert, this might be the ticket. It was first announced last month, and now Amazon has it up for preorder. Aside from the [...]

For all of Acer’s shortcomings, they do one thing quite well, and that is to undercut the competition. On a personal note, I do own two of their products, and while not the absolute highest quality, they do both get the job done. The AOD257 makes one wonder why should anyone trade Windows for a Chromebook [...]

While the concept of the Google Chromebook is intriguing, the initial pricing definitely seemed too high to me. After all, the point of giving up Windows was to bring the price down, and with Windows netbooks for significantly less, the Chromebook makes little sense. Enter the Acer AC700 Chromebook, a second wave of the Chromebook. The [...]

Digitimes is reporting that Amazon is developing an upcoming tablet. While the super-saver-shipping-goliath of online sales is mostly a reseller of goods, their Kindle ebook reader did up the ante. To push it up a notch more, it is also sold in stores like Target. With the large amount of content that Amazon can deliver electronically [...]

Panasonic is known for their ToughBook line of ruggedized notebooks. You know, the very industrial ones that are made for construction sites and military applications that can survive being hosed off. The ones that I have seen though are kind of heavy. Now they are entering the tablet arena. It will be an Android device. They [...]
